Because I configure my Emacs similarly to what Epoch used to do.  So when
I start Emacs, I only get a one-line frame holding the minibuffer.  And even
later on when "real frames" are open (without their own minibuffer) they may
be hidden or iconified, wheres my minibuffer-only-frame is always-on-top at
the bottom of my display.

Other cases of errors is when I use C-x C-f from a dedicated window/frame.
